| Abstract | The purpose of this study was to demonstrate US transdermal delivery of insulin in vivo using rabbits with a novel, low profile two-by-two US array based on the cymbal transducer. As a practical device, the cymbal array (f=20 kHz) was 37/spl times/37/spl times/7 mm/sup 3/ in size and weighed less than 22g. With a similar intensity (I/sub sptp/=100 mW/cm/sup 2/, 20% duty cycle), our goal was to determine if the same effect could be achieved with rabbits. Fourteen New Zealand White rabbit (2.7-3.4 kg) experiments were performed in three groups: two controls and one US with insulin exposure. The first group (control 1) had insulin placed in the reservoir with no US while the second group (control 2) had saline in the reservoir with US operating at I/sub sptp/=100 mW/cm/sup 2/ for 60 minutes. The third group (US-Insulin) was subjected to insulin with US exposure for 60 minutes (I/sub sptp/=100 mW/cm/sup 2/). At the commencement of the experiment, 0.3 mL of blood was collected from the ear vein to determine the blood glucose level (mg/dL) using a blood glucose monitoring system. The insulin reservoir was removed with the array after the US was turned off at 60 minutes exposure. For both control 1 and 2, the blood glucose level showed an increase at 15 and 30 minutes and remained at approximately +50 mg/dL. For the US-Insulin group, the glucose level was found to decrease -132.6/spl plusmn/35.7 mg/dL in 60 minutes. After the US and insulin were removed, the blood glucose level of US-Insulin group continued to decrease to -208.1/spl plusmn/29 mg/dL. These results indicate the feasibility of using a low cost, light weight Cymbal array for enhanced transdermal insulin delivery using US. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
